Haircuts for medium hair

Average hair length is considered one of the most versatile. Its lucky owners can afford a variety of haircuts and styling. A huge plus is the ability to endlessly experiment with your own image. It is worth doing a little graduation, changing the color or just curling the curls, and the image will be completely different.

With all the variety of medium-length haircuts, they can still be divided into types. Each master has his own secrets of bringing this or that idea to life. That's why even one and also a haircut may differ in nuances.

Hair color also plays an important role. So, the highlighted strands will repeatedly emphasize the beauty of a multi-layered haircut. Solid color shows itself perfectly on bob-type haircuts. Consider the most popular types of haircuts that exist at the moment.

A haircut that has not gone out of fashion for more than a decade. First of all, stylists recommend doing it to girls who want to achieve additional volume. It is great for fine hair. Strands of different lengths do not "press" on each other, but are in free fall.

The cascade has a lot of variations. The haircut will look different if you just change the length of the top or bottom layer.

There are three main types of this haircut: double, graduated, ragged. In the first case, two rows of hair, differing in length, will be clearly visible on the head. In the second, the strands of one layer can have different lengths, but you can still trace their general direction. In the latter, the hairstyle does not have clear layers.When styling, it seems that the strands stick out like feathers.

The versatility of the hairstyle is in the ability to change it using various styling. It can be beautiful curls that fall beautifully down. Moreover, each of them will differ from the neighboring in length.

Very feminine haircut. She is preferred by both young beauties and older ladies. A huge plus is the fact that the length of the hair remains intact. This is especially valuable for those looking to grow hair.

As for the main feature, it consists in the fact that the strands near the face are cut obliquely. So, the nearest ones will have a minimum length, then lengthening and comparing with the length of the bulk of the hair.

If you have naturally thin hair, then this will help create extra volume. It is quite simple to lay it. First, you need to create a root volume, then twist the ends of the "ladder" to the face. With this hairstyle, you will feel comfortable both in the office and at a friendly party.

In the classic sense, a bob is a fairly short haircut. The length of the strands near the face barely reaches the end of the chin. But on its basis, stylists create and elongated bob. At the same time, on the occipital part, the length remains rather short. In front, they can go down almost to the shoulders. And no one will allow you to call this haircut short.

Another feature is the milled strands. Without this, it is difficult to achieve the volume that is characteristic of this hairstyle. Many people mistakenly believe that this haircut does not provide an opportunity to create different images. But this is not the case. One has only to change the place of the parting, make it oblique, or even comb the curls back, as the whole image changes.

Of the features, we can note the need to constantly adjust the haircut.

Are there still girls who have never cut their hair under a square in their life. But if in its classical interpretation the haircut assumes a short length (approximately to the earlobes or higher), then the elongated version can even go down to the shoulders.

The peculiarity of this type of haircut is in an even cut. Remember the image of Cleopatra. Perfect smooth hair of the same length, and still the same straight cut. And if the ancient Egyptian beauty preferred to wear it with bangs, then you can do without it.

It is a mistake to believe that such a haircut does not require styling. Many people think that since the hair is cut as naturally as possible, then they will lie on their own without external interference. If you rely on this, then in the end you will get just hanging strands, devoid of volume and the desired smoothness.

But creating volume on such a hairstyle is not difficult, since the length is small. You just have to lower your head down and dry with a hairdryer. The iron will help to achieve ideal straightness.

The name of the concept of graduation comes from the word "degree". This explains the main feature of this type of hairstyle. The master needs to hold the scissors at a certain angle in order to achieve smooth transition of length.

Compared to a cascade, they have both common properties and differences. The similarity lies in the different lengths of the strands all over the head. But in the cascade version, you can easily see the different layers. When graduating, the transition is carried out so smoothly that sometimes it is not possible to see it.

There are three main directions of graduation. In the first embodiment, the hair cut at the bottom is a straight line, but you can see a smooth transition in length. The thicker the hair, the larger the transition line can be. In the second option, it is allowed to change the length of the strand along the entire length. So, on the crown there may be very short strands, but the total length reaches the shoulder line.

It is difficult to list all the possible variations of this type of hairstyle. Each girl can choose her own style. In addition, masters often offer interesting ideas for their implementation.

Generally speaking, asymmetry can be observed in the length of the hair on different layers. In this case, it will be very similar to the cascade hairstyle. Another option would be a hairstyle in which the length of the hair will be different on the left and right sides of the face. Moreover, it can smoothly flow into one another, or the transition can be very abrupt.

The latter options include haircuts with a shaved temple on one side. Such haircuts were at the peak of popularity a couple of years ago, but even today girls who want to show their individuality often make this extravagant option.

It is worth noting that such haircuts require from their owners the ideal condition of the skin and the correct oval of the face. Only in this case do they add beauty. Clean lines bring attention to the face. And if even minor rashes are observed on the skin, then everything will be very noticeable.

Classic straight bangs help to emphasize clear geometry. A haircut does not require special skills from the master or the use of non-standard approaches. One has only to cut the hair in a straight line, and do the same with bangs. If your hair is thin and you want to add volume to it, then you should refuse a haircut. It is also contraindicated for girls whose hair is prone to sectioning. The edges will not hold the line as clearly.

The Aurora hairstyle was invented by stylists many years ago. Depending on fashion trends, it underwent some changes, but remained one of the most popular. If in the 80s it was fashionable to make the top layer very short, creating a kind of hat on the head, and the ends had practically no volume and hung in straight strands, today this option is not in trend.

The second name of the hairstyle is Italian, since she comes from this sunny country. She is characterized by airiness and lightness. She, like the cascade, there is a difference in length, but here it is more pronounced. That is the first layer is much shorter than the second.

We already wrote about the option of hairstyles with bangs when we looked at the square. But the choice is not limited to this. It can be absolutely any length, slope and density.

Thanks to this, a variety of images is achieved. After all, any girl will confirm that one has only to make a bang, without changing the hairstyle itself, as the whole image changes. Among all the diversity, several main directions can be distinguished.

It is ideal for graduated or cascade haircuts. The different lengths of the strands will be emphasized by the slope of the bangs itself. With this version of the bangs you can hide some flaws, but still the face will remain quite open.

And also it will be appreciated by girls who, by nature, have a vortex in the area close to the forehead. It is very difficult to put it in an even bang, but if you reduce the length in this part, and profile the area at the roots, then the bangs will lie in an even layer.

This option is often found in matching hairstyles. If all the strands are made using this technology, then straight bangs will look like an alien element.

Everyone imagines this variation. It perfectly masks an unnecessarily high forehead, and is also well suited for young ladies with round facial features.

Another haircut in which you can observe different lengths of strands. This is a kind of symbiosis of a ladder and a cascade. The fact is that near the face, the strands resemble a ladder and beautifully frame the face. For the bulk of the hair, the length will also not be uniform.

Another distinctive feature is the presence of bangs. In the classical version, it is always present, although you can do without it. It all depends on your face shape and personal preferences.

The haircut is quite difficult to perform. The wizard must think over the length of each layer in advance and predict how it will look on a specific client.

It is worth opening any specialized magazine for hairdressers, as you will see very unusual and creative haircuts. Most of them will forever remain "museum" exhibits, because only the most daring can decide to bring them to life (if there are any).

But sometimes even the most avant-garde trends move from the catwalks to everyday life. So it was with shaved temples (when on one side the temple is shaved to the minimum length, and on the other the length remains), which at first were perceived by many negatively. The same trend was observed for hair of unusual colors.

Craftsmen rarely divide haircuts by hair color. There is no such hairstyle that would be perfect for blondes, but would not look on brunettes and vice versa. Here, attention is paid to other individual parameters. One of the main ones is the face oval. There are several types of them. And when choosing a haircut, it will be a fatal mistake not to take this feature into account.

After all, even if the master does his job perfectly, but the haircut, by definition, does not fit your face type, it will only ruin the image.

This type is considered the standard. Most existing hairstyles are suitable for this type. This allows you to endlessly experiment with your own image. But still it is worth highlighting those haircuts that emphasize the natural beauty. These include, in particular:

• square;
• bean;
• cascade;
• the above options in combination with bangs.

With an oval face shape, a hairstyle such as a ladder will also look beautiful. She beautifully frames the face, emphasizing the beautiful oval.

Many girls make a critical mistake when choosing a hairstyle for this type of face. Believing that their shape is already too round, they deprive the hair of all volume, as they think that this will make the face even wider.

If the hair is in straight strands around the face, this will further emphasize its shape. It will appear larger. The additional volume will divert attention to itself, making the oval visually smaller. Therefore, many stylists agree that the following haircuts are suitable for a round face type:

• asymmetry (visually corrects the shape of the face, giving it the desired proportion);
• with oblique bangs (in this case, part of the forehead will be hidden, which will significantly change the proportions);
• volumetric (its main part should be concentrated in the upper part);
• a cascade and a ladder (the strands near the face will hide the cheeks, and the long curls will visually stretch the face).

This face shape is very interesting. It is impossible not to notice a girl whose face shape resembles a real diamond. It is characterized by a narrow forehead, wide cheekbones and a pointed chin.

Many celebrities have this face type and know very well what haircuts are best for them. First of all, you should understand what you should definitely not do with your hair. And this is primarily the volume in the cheekbones. This will only aggravate the situation, making the cheekbones even wider, and the chin and forehead visually narrower. And it is also not recommended to comb your hair smoothly and tuck it all into a ponytail.

Consider those successful examples that will emphasize the dignity of their owner. In the first places are the elongated bob and bob. Delicately framing the face, they will hide too wide cheekbones and balance the oval.

In second place are haircuts, which will fit in a certain way, namely, in curls or curls. If you have naturally curly strands, then you will only have to emphasize this with an appropriate haircut. Girls with straight hair will have to make a little effort to create beautiful curls. But the result is worth it.

It is worth noting that it is for this type of face that medium-length haircuts are the best suited.

This type of facial contour is characterized by a wide forehead and a massive chin. The task of stylists will be to visually transform it into a classic oval. First of all, you should understand what mistakes should be avoided. This is primarily the volume in the area of ​​the cheekbones and chin. This will only visually increase them, making the proportions even more massive.

Another mistake can be choosing a hairstyle with perfectly straight and even strands. This is contraindicated, since the oval is not corrected in any way.

And here is a list of haircuts that will not only decorate the owners of a square face, but also correct the proportions.

• Haircuts with long bangs. If you have never worn such bangs, then at first you may be uncomfortable. The strands will strive to fall on the face. Therefore, do not be afraid to use fixatives so as not to be distracted by your hair throughout the day.
• Ladder with curls. An elegant and romantic option. You don't have to style your entire hair into curls. It will be enough to work out well the strands that make up the ladder. For the rest, it will be enough to curl the ends a little.
• Asymmetrical haircuts of medium length. If you have a habit of tucking loose hair behind your ear, then this is your option. The fact is that the shorter side is often tucked behind the ear, and the long one frames the face. This is a very comfortable and practical haircut. The option with curls looks very interesting.
• Haircuts with and without a side parting. Parting in the middle is strictly contraindicated for this type of face. He will only focus on the wide forehead. The side parting will divert attention and slightly shift the emphasis from the large forehead to the hairstyle itself.

If you think that nature has treated you unfairly by awarding you with such a face shape, then look at the list of celebrities who have this shape clearly expressed. Moreover, they are all considered recognized beauties and sex symbols. These include Angelina Jolie, Sarah Jessica-Parker and Salma Hayek. Is there a daredevil who will reproach them for lack of femininity or beauty.

We are also in a hurry to share with you the secret of current haircuts that are suitable for a rectangular face type. Medium length visually lengthens the face and makes it rounder. Here are some tips to listen to if you want to look stylish and harmonious.

• Choose hairstyles with bangs. Moreover, it should not be too rare or torn. It is better to give preference to a long or classic length. Make sure that it is quite thick as well.
• The optimal length will be a haircut that is not shorter than the chin line, but also not longer than the shoulders. This is precisely the range that refers to the average length. Therefore, we can safely say that all multi-level haircuts of medium length are suitable for this type.
• Volume. But do not create a lush volume from the roots. It will be better if it is located in the area of ​​the temples. This will visually change the proportions of the face, making it more rounded.

If you think that in the new season you will have a sharp change in the course in haircuts, then we hasten to disappoint you. At the moment, the tendencies set in the last year are preserved. This is great, since there is no need to radically change the image for those who follow fashion trends.

The main feature of modern hairstyles and haircuts is versatility. They are perfect for women of different ages, social status and views. It is worth noting that it is haircuts for medium hair that are the most relevant and modern. Take a look at the list below. Maybe here you will find for yourself the novelty that will decorate your look this season:

1. asymmetry;
2. elongated square;
3. elongated bob.

We have already written about the advantages and features of each of them above. By choosing one of these options, you will stay in trend all season. In addition, these haircuts are very easy and pleasant to look after. The medium length allows you to experiment with styling. This saves you the hassle of changing your haircut often. It will only be necessary to visit the master from time to time to support her.

When choosing, you should be based not only on fashion trends, but also on hair color. Since the same haircut can look differently on blond and dark hair, although there will be no difference in the technology of their execution at all.

Cutting your hair yourself is very difficult. Even experienced masters trust their colleagues with their haircuts, since it is almost unrealistic to cut hair that is on the parietal part.

But even in this case, it will be useful to know what is the same way to perform modern haircuts. This will help you in more detail and clearly explain to the master what you expect as a result.

This hairstyle option remains at the peak of popularity among women's haircuts for several seasons. Let's try to disassemble all the subtleties of its creation.

To begin with, part your hair with a straight part and gather it in two bundles at the crown so that they do not interfere with the process. Separate a thin section from the bottom. Hold it with two fingers and trim to the desired length. This will be the minimum length for your haircut.

Further, freeing strand by strand, we begin to shape the haircut. We take only those strands that belong to the back of the head. In order to achieve lengthening closer to the face, the strands must be pulled at an angle of 15 degrees in relation to the head. The scissors are also kept at a slight angle. Due to this, each subsequent strand will be longer than the previous one, while there will be no sharp difference in height.

Next comes the turn of the temples. We release the lower temporal strand from the side, we also pull it back and cut it. Moreover, it should be the same length as the occipital. If you want a more pronounced transition, then the scissors must be held at an angle (for lengthening to the face).

Next, we act according to the same principle as on the back of the head: we release thin strands and cut them off, pulling them off at an angle. When finished, comb through your hair and trim the ends. The square for lengthening should have an even cut.

This hairstyle is distinguished by a more pronounced volume in the back of the head and in the area of ​​\ u200b \ u200bthe temples. This is achieved due to the fact that the master moves up strand by strand, they become shorter. But you will not observe an obvious difference. Such a model haircut requires a certain skill from the master, because in the end it should turn out with an ideal length transition.

Divide the hair into 5 parts: 2 temporal zones, parietal, inferior and superior occipital. Each must be braided and stabbed. Starting at the lower occipital zone, separate strand by strand. Pull it slightly at an angle and cut to length. Take the next one and also pull it back and cut it off.

A similar manipulation will need to be done with the superior occipital and temporal zones. The most recent is the parietal zone. Here you need to move from the bottom up to the central parting. To give your hairstyle volume and a finished look, profile the strands. Be careful not to damage the length.

There are several options for performing haircuts. A huge plus is the fact that if you are satisfied with the overall length, and you do not want to touch it, then you can easily make the "ladder" yourself.

If it is necessary to reduce the length of the bulk of the hair, you should start with it. To do this, part your hair with a straight part. Beginning at the back of the head, separate strand by strand and trim to the desired length. This will have to be done first from one side, then from the other side. When you reach the ear line, stop.

Now we turn to the direct formation of the ladder. To do this, comb a thin strand of hair forward at the forehead. Determine the top and bottom of the ladder. Separating the strands in stages, make an oblique cut from the top point to the bottom. Next, you will need to separate the strand by strand, and cut to a given length until you reach the ear line (on which you finished cutting the back strand).

Comb through your hair thoroughly and go over the ends again so that there are no protruding hairs left. If the hair is very thick, it is recommended to additionally profile the ladder itself and the back. This will help to keep the hairstyle lighter and maintain the volume and the desired styling line.

Another option could be stepped trimming of the strands near the forehead. In this case, the transition from one length to another will be more noticeable. But when styling (it will be necessary to curl it with a brush or an iron inward), the curls will look very organic, gradually going down along the face.

The square for lengthening will add style and boldness to the image. At the same time, a haircut will be relevant both in the office and on a romantic date.

The bob haircut has long been a classic. But it does not lose its relevance to this day.

A ladder haircut for medium hair always looks feminine. At the same time, you will not have any problems if you want to grow the length or, conversely, make a shorter version of the hairstyle.
